Sports Nutrition
for Endurance Athletes, 3rd edition
By Monique Ryan, MS, RD
VeloPress, 2012, 430 pg., 14 chapters, $21.95
Sports Nutrition for Endurance Athletes makes high-performance
nutrition simple for running, cycling, triathlon, and swimming.
Weighing in at 432 pages, this newly updated third edition
is the most comprehensive resource on nutrition from the
most experienced and highly qualified nutritionist in endurance
sports.
Ryan offers clear answers to the
most basic questions in endurance sports nutrition—what should I eat, how much,
and when—based on the latest research and experience
from her 30-year career advising elite and age-group athletes
and pro sports teams. She offers fine-tuning strategies for
training and racing, optimal recovery, weight loss, and boosting
strength-to-weight ratio. Citing rigorous and reputable studies,
Ryan busts myths about ergogenic aids and supplements and
offers a dose of reality to practices like fat loading and
glycogen-depleted workouts.
Since endurance sports are too different
for a “one
size fits all” food plan, Sports Nutrition for
Endurance Athletes reveals how runners, cyclists, triathletes,
and swimmers should fuel differently to gain real performance
advantages in their sports. Even within each sport, optimal
nutrition varies with the type and duration of events, so
Ryan explains nutrition for short- and long-course triathlon;
road, criterium, and mountain bike racing; 10K, half-marathon,
and marathon; and sprint and distance swimming.
This complete guide addresses a wide variety of special
nutrition considerations for younger and older athletes,
diabetics, vegetarians, pregnant women, and those with celiac
disease or gluten intolerance. Sports Nutrition for Endurance
Athletes also offers six appendixes of reference material
including glycemic index, vitamin and mineral glossary, an
up-to-date comparison of sports nutrition products, and sample
menus.
Smart nutrition can make the difference between a personal
record and a lackluster season. Committed athletes and newcomers
to endurance sports will both find Sports Nutrition for
Endurance Athletes to be a comprehensive, easy-to-use
guide to better performance in running, cycling, triathlon,
and swimming.

nutrition principles. As high school and college sports have become more
